Sensory Description:

Bright notes of wild strawberry, red currant, and crushed raspberry lead the way, followed by hints of pink apple skin and rose petal. The palate is light on its feet, driven by crisp acidity and a fine, playful mousse that lifts the fruit and keeps the finish clean, fresh, and gently refreshing. A subtle natural sweetness softens the edges without dulling the wine’s energetic snap.

Producer’s Background:

Domaine Robert Serol is a family estate guided by Stéphane Sérol, who took the reins in the mid-1990s and, alongside his wife Carine, reshaped the domaine around organic and biodynamic principles. Deeply committed to expressing Gamay in its purest form, the Sérols focus on vitality in both vineyard and cellar, allowing minimal-intervention techniques to highlight freshness, drinkability, and a strong sense of place across their range.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve well chilled at approximately 11°C in a white wine glass to allow the aromas to open. This lively sparkling rosé shines as an aperitif and pairs effortlessly with salty snacks, fresh cheeses, charcuterie, picnic fare, summer salads, and lightly spiced dishes where its acidity and gentle fizz refresh the palate.
